Development of 12 T-10 kA A1-stabilized Nb3Sn conductor for TMC-II

  • 1. Fusion Research Center, Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute Naka-machi, Ibaraki-ken

Description

The Al-stabilized Nb3Sn strand has been successfully fabricated and J /SUB c/ value of 400 A/mm2 at 12 T is obtained on condition that Nb3Sn is reacted at 6250C for 200 hr. Overall residual resistivity of this strand is lowered to 77% of that of the Custabilized Nb3Sn strand (TMC-I) /SUP 1.2/ at 12 T by Alstabilizer. The 12 T-10 kA cable-in-conduit conductor, fabricated by this strands, is charged up to 20 kA at 8.7 T without appearance of normal zone. From these experimental results, this conductor satisfies almost the specification of the present target conductor (TMC-II)3
